The City of Austin’s Equity Office is accepting applications from the community for a new grant funding opportunity. The Immigrant Integration Grant fund is focused on eliminating structural barriers and improving the quality of life for the City’s immigrant* communities. We are interested in supporting projects that can increase the sense of welcoming and belonging for our various immigrant communities. Projects that work to bring diverse immigrant communities together in the spirit of collaboration and solidarity will be prioritized for award.
A total of $100,000 is available through this fund, with award amounts up to $10,000. Organizations are encouraged to apply here by July 30, 2021. Funds will be awarded by the end of September.
*Our definition of "immigrant" is broad and includes people who are undocumented, DACAmented, asylees, asylum-seekers, refugees, and more. If you have any questions about this grant funding opportunity, please email rocio.villalobos@austintexas.gov
